In addition to the idler bearings, you might also want to check the
condition of the seals for the fuel injectors. On the way to
Memphis last year an owner had the retaining clip pop up, and the
seal unseated slightly, resulting in an ear piercing whistle of a
vacumme leak. I have also noticed a lesser form of this whistle on
a Maryland owner's car, and even my own 4 weeks ago when the engines
were cold. Just another thing to check.
